Mac Jones has had a tumultuous season thus far. He has played well in spurts but he has also been benched twice in blow out losses to the Cowboys and Saints. Jones tenure in New England in many ways mimics his three seasons as a Patriot. You get some good and you get a fair amount of bad when it comes to Jones play. What we saw Sunday was good…

One is nice, two would be a whole lot better, especially in the division. After upsetting Buffalo last week, the Pats legitimately have a chance to continue turning what looked like an abysmal season around if they can match the same effort they put forth last week when they head down to Miami this weekend.
